And now, French celebrity hairstylist, David Mallett, has graced us with the anti-scrunchie.

More like a hair ring, it’s made up of an elastic and rounded bangle which has a spring-style clasp to encircle and then secure your ponytail.

Designed in collaboration with Genevan jewellery designer, Suzanne Syz, the ‘La Bague de Cheveux’ comes in three different golds – white gold, rose gold, and yellow gold – and is a sure fire way to jazz up unwashed, day three strands.

Although it doesn’t come cheap. At $630, it’s definitely not a hair elastic you’d want to put through the wash/leave at the gym/lend to your work wife. Not prepared to spend the majority of your tax return to tie your hair up? Lady Jayne's Metal Ponytail Cuff will do the same trick for $11.49.
